Powertrain Options and Availability
Either a 2.7-liter 4-cylinder dual-overhead-cam engine or a 3.4-liter V6, also with dual overhead camshafts, might be installed in a 4Runner. The 4-cylinder engine got some improvements for 1997, but power and torque ratings stayed the same at 150 horsepower and 177 pound-feet. The V6 engine developed 183 horsepower and 217 pound-feet of torque. Limited models came only with a 4-speed automatic transmission, but others had a standard 5 speed manual gearbox, with automatic as an option. 4-cylinder models and manual transmission were unavailable in 2001.
